Q: Dear Dr. Rowena, Since I have used my Resperate I began to perceive an improvement in my hearing condition. I’m 64 years old and I think that is possible once the relaxation of the vessels enable a better irrigation of the blood. Do you agree? Thanks
A: To my knowledge, clinical studies have not been doing looking at use of the Resperate in hearing disorders. However, it is certainly possible that getting your blood pressure into better control has helped with your hearing. Many Resperate users report good effects other than lower blood pressure from regular Resperate use. The most frequent is improved sleeping at night.

I have noticed a similar effect, that when my BP is on the high side, I have a slight muffling in one of my ears. It disappears when I eat less salt, and blood pressure is lower. For this reason, I associate the hearing problem with a perception of excess fluid (somewhere in the ear?) that makes hearing a little less acute when present.
